Dawson Nyffenegger is an undergraduate English & Professional Writing student at York University in Toronto.

He is a fan of pets and animal nutrition, an interest created during six years of labour at a local pet shop.
Many classic ghost stories involve the use of haunted houses, and the reason is simple: it turns something that is supposed to be cozy and welcoming into a hellish nightmare. Truly, if a home isn't safe, then what is? It's also a common device used because many who supposedly have paranormal encounters or stories often have them in their homes, which may or may not be haunted. From classics like The Innocents to modern hits like The Conjuring, the subgenre keeps on giving.
Reviews were good, albeit not incredible. Audiences found it creepy but also kind of fun, which isn't a good sign unless it's intentional, which doesn't seem to be the case here. It isn't the most original premise, but it has a lot of the classic horror tropes that fans love, so it still delivers in a lot of aspects.
The mansion is the typical haunted house with frightening apparitions and spooky noises, except underwater. The movie plays into a lot of common human fears like deep water, darkness, and the unknown to deliver something that will chill anyone to the bone. However, it fell kind of flat in terms of reception. There just aren't very many people who know about The Deep House, which is really a shame considering its one-of-a-kind premise.
Terrified does not let up with its fear factor, creating new scenarios and setpieces to creep audiences out in a new way with every scene. The manor is basically a giant red flag, so the audience can easily infer how the movie plays out. The movie itself has a really tongue-in-cheek sense of humor and makes effective use of a teeny-tiny budget and only two main cast members to deliver equal parts fear and amusement. It is a B-movie through and through, so it couldn't really compete with other horror movies that year, especially considering that it never had a theatre release.
2 'Under the Shadow' Directed by Babak Anvari Under the Shadow is an Iranian movie that takes place during the War of the Cities in the 1980s. Amidst constant bombardment and airstrikes, a mother named Shideh and her daughter, Dorsa , are trapped in their home. They meet a little boy who is "mute" but still tells Dorsa about the tale of the Djinn, a demon-like figure in Islam.
